A Surfman was part of a rescue team that would enter the raging waters in a small paddle boat when they spotted a ship in distress. Throughout my daily journey I have come across many surfmen who have left our big blue marble a better place. This blog will be about the surfman within all of us, which will act as a metaphor for good people doing good deeds or things that bring joy into our lives.

58th Surfman Award: Earth Hour - March 29th 8PM

This week I am writing about something that is very important to our planet. The ability that we all have to leave a lighter foot print on our big blue marble. On March 29th, 2008 at 8 PM each and everyone of us can take a stand and turn the lights out for one hour at the very least. Hopefully this will be a wake up call to those who are not already shutting off lights when they leave a room or doing other things like recycling, or reducing their car idle times or perhaps just leaving the old car at home and riding a bike. There are many many things that we can do to help our planet. Afterall, the power of the few can not only enhance the many but influence the many. Our planet and our people depend on it! The environment must be our single most important agenda, otherwise our future generations will suffer the effects of our arrogance and waste.
